I am new here, not the best in VB but I am trying to learn some. I am using ADO Data Control in my program and when I load it, or try to run it, it says "ADO could not find the speific provider." I've looked around some and did not find anything helpful. Any suggestions?

ADO could not find the specific provider, how do I fix this?

Check your ADODB.ConnectString value, make sure it was typed correctly (the server name if u put database on server, the database name if ur using MS Access, DSN file if ur use ODBC and so on)
usually, this is the source of that error.

Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=D:\JH_VB_DB\PAICdb.mdb;Persist Security Info=False
thats my connection string. Now when I click on build and select Microsoft Jet 4.0 OLE DB Provider and then click next and it says "Selected provider is not available. Check to see whether the driver was deleted"
Thats where I am at.
